The climate crisis has a gender

timesofindia.indiatimes.com/bl

The #UN estimates that 80% of people displaced by #ClimateChange are #women and #girls. That number isn’t random, it’s the brutal result of existing #gender #inequalities colliding with ecological catastrophe. From Bangladesh’s coastal villages to drought-stricken Kenya, it is women who hold communities together while the ground literally disappears beneath them.

When disaster strikes, women don’t just flee – they carry everyone

When a climate disaster hits, the checklist begins: save the children, the elderly, the disabled. Secure water, food, and shelter. These responsibilities almost always fall on women.

In displacement camps or makeshift shelters, women are the ones who carry the young, feed the family last, and sleep light for safety. During the 2004 Indian Ocean #tsunami and the 1991 #Bangladesh #cyclone, far more women than men died, not because they were weaker, but because boys had been taught to swim and climb trees, because women stayed behind to help others, or because they weren’t allowed to evacuate without male permission.

The world calls it disaster management. For women, it’s survival choreography, without a safety net.

Mes p'tits Mastoufoux du soir !
L'événement : #hurricane #Erick

C'est fait : l'ouragan Erick est en route pour les côtes du Mexique.

Catégorie 2 actuellement mais l'intensification est en cours, et tout porte à croire qu'Erick deviendra le premier majeur de la saison, tout bassin nord confondus .

Ma première animation satellite aussi de cette saison.

Il est déjà magnifique.
La trajectoire devrait impacter au sud d'Acapulco. #Acapulco déjà sévèrement touché en 2023.

Yeah.

"The environmental conditions are nearly ideal for intensification
with the vertical wind shear expected to be less than 10 kt,
mid-level humidities near or above 80 percent, and SSTs over 29
C for the next 2 or 3 days. Nearly all of the models show the
system strengthening significantly, and given the conducive
conditions, rapid intensification is a possibility. The NHC
intensity forecast lies near the consensus models and shows the
cyclone becoming a tropical storm by early Tuesday and a hurricane
before it reaches Mexico."

When the sea moves inland: A global climate wake-up call from #Bangladesh's Delta

As sea levels climb and #weather grows more extreme, coastal regions everywhere are facing a creeping threat: salt. #Salinization of #freshwater and #soils adversely affects 500 million people around the world, especially in low-lying #river #deltas.

The western parts of the delta, already more prone to tidal influence, showed the fastest increases in salinity. The data suggests that the combination of #SeaLevelRise, reduced freshwater flow, and increasingly frequent storm surges are all contributing to the inland movement and retention of saltwater.

Since about 2007, many parts of the delta have experienced stepwise increases in salinity, often linked to powerful storms like #Cyclone #Sidr. These changes can devastate crops, erode #FoodSecurity, and force communities to move. While the analysis focused primarily on environmental data, it underscores how salinity intrusion is increasingly a threat to livelihoods, public #health, and regional stability.
